Royal Parks Half Marathon 2025

I'm taking part in the Royal Parks Half Marathon as part of #TeamStroke

Hi, I’m Sharon and I’m running the Royal Parks Half Marathon to raise money for the Stroke Association—a cause very close to my heart.

My grandad had a stroke, and seeing how it affected him and our family has stayed with me ever since. It’s one of the reasons I’m now training to become a Speech and Language Therapist, with the hope of helping stroke survivors regain their ability to communicate and connect with others.

There are over 1.3 million stroke survivors in the UK, with 100,000 strokes happening in the UK each year. That's one stroke every five minutes.

By supporting this charity, you’re helping fund life-changing research, recovery programs, and support services. Every donation—big or small—means the world. Thank you so much for your support!
